Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/
p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.

Have you found a solution to this yet? Myself and all of my colleages are currently dealing with this exact issue. Killing Crash Processer in task manager is the only workaround that allows me to move my files.

Same here. 4 hours with Adobe support who said it's a Microsoft problem, who say it's an Adobe problem. Please tell me someone has a fix.

I've had about 4/5 long calls with Adobe and I've been chatting back & forth with my company's IT provider as well.
The only thing that's "worked" so far is setting up a new local user on my PC and running Illustrator as that user. This would mean besically setting up my PC from scratch - which is a hassle.
A quick work-around that my IT support came up with is to wait for the error to pop up, run a .bat file that kills Adobe Crash Reporter, and then click "Try again." This works 99% of the time.
It's pretty easy to set up the .bat file. Just make a new .txt file somwhere (desktop works), paste in the below 2 lines (I made them orange here):
@ECho off
taskkill /im "Adobe Crash Processor.exe" /f
and then save it as a .bat file instead of a .txt file. Then open that file any time you need to get around the error.
Hope this helps someone else! Not ideal but it's the simplest "fix" for me.

Comforting this isn't just a "me" issue but I'm just so discouraged there's no fix. I have been doing the new user thing, but as soon as I let the computer log off or shut down it stops working again. A real work stopper at the worst possible time for photo season. I have a call with advanced support in an hour.
